How can you stand being so intellectually dishonest? Seriously. You made a claim about the KJV that is demonstrably untrue, and we demonstrated it. Yet you continue to speak of the KJV as if it is the best translation, when all modern scholars know better. It's a master accomplisment of English literature, and remains the most beautifully poetic translation ever made (in my opinion, shared by many others), but it's actually a bad translation, because the people who translated it didn't know what we know today about the language they were translating, having far less access in the 17th century to ancient documents which helped to understand the idioms and word usage of first century Greek/Aramaic and ancient Hebrew than the Anglicans had when they made that translation. Yet you see changes not as improvements but alterations, as if the KJV can be the only right one, even though we know that the KJV was done with a specific agenda. You are bordering on being a liar, having seen that kind of thing and still repeating what you began here thinking. Also, you falsely represent atheism and skepticism as things that they are not, and then just cover your ears and hum when we tell you what it really is and what we really think. You try to martyr yourself by thinking that we hate you for your belief, when it's really just sadness that you have swallowed an ideology of Bible Idolatry that blinds you to very basic rational thinking processes. Truly, people like you make me very sad. I cannot hate you, I can only mourn for what you have done to your own mind.

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

I was miserable as an atheist and I'm literally the happiest ive been now that I accepted the truth. no need to be sad over my beliefs.

A liar is someone who, when confronted with very basic facts (like the clear knowledge that the KJV was made to suit a political and religious--the same thing, since the Church of England was the official government religion--agenda), yet continues to say the same original claim that the KJV is the only "true" translation, and all the others have agendas. It's absurd and sad. It's funny you should say that; I was happy as a Christian, until I realized the lies I was being told by the Church leadership, at which point I became very upset, because I am a fundamentally (no pun intended) honest person. When I realized that I no longer believed, I felt a relief and newfound sense of wonder at the world/universe around me, since I can now look at things as they are, instead of having to bend reality to fit a book's preset ideas about that world. I don't "know what is truth" in all cases, but I'm not going to pretend I know truth when I don't, and I'll honestly admit when I have made a mistake or misunderstood something. That's intellectual honesty. So is calling a falsehood a falsehood, and a person who speaks falsehood a liar.
